[NEW TIMM] TIM QUARTER'S REVENUE.—Owing to the new financial arrangements of last Session, which have introduced considerable alteration into the mode. of making ,up: the Revenue Accounts, the Quarterly Statements wiJI not be completed till towards noon to-day. We are, therefore, unable to,lay the results before our Readers in a tabular form ; but, from;what , we already know of them, we can confidently assert that they will be found to.be most,. satisfactory. The party who so re ceotly attempted to clamour down commercial .credit, have ,within these few (lays endeavoured , to do the same by the finances : but they will find the task beyond their strength. The talk of comparing the Revenue of the last Quarter with that of the corresponding Quarter of the year preceding—a comparison which, for reasons that we shall by and' by state, is altogether vague and inconclusive : the only fair comparison w hi c h can now be instituted is between the estimated produce of the year and its actual produce. Have the expectations held out- by the Chancellor of the Exchequer been justi fied by the result, or have they not ? We speak confidently when we say they have been more than justified. On the 28th of last February Mr. Robinson opened his budget. He stated to the Committee his calculations for the year, and. explained the grounds on which they were form ed. He assumed the produce of 1826 for the United Kingdom, at 56,445,3701. including the usualbeads of Customs, Excise, Stamps, Taxes, Post-office, and ,Miscellaneous, and also includ ing the sum paid by the Trustees of Half Pay. The accounts made up to-day, as our Readers know, are not those of the United Kingdom, but only of Great Britain : the Irish Accounts must of course, be a week behind the others ; but we have the satisfaction to state, that up to the last that have been received, they were going on admirably : a spur has been given to Irish industry in the course of the year, the beue. ficial influence of which is no where more visible than iu the financial returns. We pro ceed with our view of the Year. The sum paid .by the "'Trestees of Half-pay" is fixed by agree ment at 4,470,3701. : this, therefore, cannot vary from 'the estimate. The article headed 64 Miscel laneous" -is of minor importance, and will of course,be one of the , last made up. The esti mated produce of the Stamps was 7.100,0004 of the Assessed and other Taxes, :4,8,75,0001., and of the Post Qffire 1,500,0001., making together 13,41.3,0001. We are enabled ,to assert that all and each . of these have exceeded the estimate; in fact they ,had exceeded it a week ago, some more and some less, but all exhibited a surplus. The two remaining articles are the Customs and Ex. sAse;,., they were respectively estimated,to produce 11,350,0001.and26,400,000/.together37,7soooo/. Now, in regard to these, so much alteration of system has taken place by appeals, alleviations, and transpositions of duties, for the relief of trade and commerce, that it is impossible to state with accuracy the precise bearings of those two branches of revenue, on the estimate, under their particular heads. What the result will be in the aggregate, a few hours will show, and that it will be perfectly satisfactory there is not the smallest doubt. It Must be remembered, that Mr. Robin son, in his speech of February 28th, calculated on a ; loss of 650,0001. below the estimate ; of which 580,0001. fell upon the Customs and Ex. ale. It must also be remembered, that subse a .quently to that speed( two' other large deduc tions accrued, viz. above 1,000,0001. for duties returned on %slues in stock ; and about 350,000/. for a duty on tobacco, which became lapsed by an oversight in an Art of Parliament.— These - three smut, therefore, of 580,0001., 1,000,0001,, end 3500001., making together 1,930,0001., should be. deducted from the above estimate of 37,750,0001. leaving for the expected produce of the Customs and Excise for 1825, the sum of 35,810,0001. It remains to be seen, by the details Which will be furnished in the course of this day,,,Whether the produce of the Customs and EXcise together will fall short of, or exceed, this sum, of 35,820,0001. In whatever degree it may (acted that sum, in that degree will the Revenue of the year exceed the reasonable ex pectations held out, by Mr. Robinson. We do not like to pledge ourselves to any specific state ments; which we are not fully prepared to justify by official documents ; but knowing as we do what these two branches of Revenue had produced, in England a week, and hi Ireland a fortnight ago, and, knowing that . very large payments have occurred since that time, we do notlhesitate to say there must be a, considerable .surplus: So much for the Year, which, we repeat, affords the only fair ground of comparison, and that with the estimate of its produce. Upon the Quarter, as compared with the corresponding Quarter of the preceding twelvemonth, we do not venture to offer any cal -. culatiou. 1t seems reasonable to expect that. the Quarter ending on the sth of January, 1825, should produce more than the Quarter eliding on the sth of January, 1826 ; for this plain tea eon, that many duties were in operation in the former of those Quarters, which were rs.p'ul ed previously to this latter ; such as those on Wine, Spirits, and some .minor articles. With respect to more specific comparisons, they Would be. still less accurate; for many articles, such as Coffee, Cocoa, Wine, Tobacco, Pepper, Foreign Spirits, and in short all imported articles, have been transferred from the Excise to the Customs. i tgaiß, it is not to be overlooked, that large spe culations in fureign raw materials, especially Sill, look place during the Christmas Quarter of 1814,'Which'imports having glutted the market, and tended mainly to depress prices in that branch of - trade,: it could not reasonably be expected iftitt the , Import Duties on the seine articles would be equally productive • in the quarter just terminated. Upon the whole, as we wish, en the one hand, to guard ourselves against the charge of ,exaggeration, so we true, on the other, we have proved the financial situa tion of the country to be most flourishing. Our readers may Implicitly rely on the fatts..tbat we have stated ; and for the coufirwation of our rea soning we appeal to, the further official details *liich will be made out in the course of the day. [TUE TIMER.] A debate of much interest, on the subject of West Indian slavery is reported to have taken place at a public meeting in Trinidad on the 17th of November. The object of the Meeting was to promote the establishment of a press for advocating the cause of the West India colonists in London, and to commit the management of it to a Mr. James Macqueen. It appears to us that there cannot be imagined any fair or reasonable objection to such a measure. If there be amongst the people of England any classes of individuals disposed to carry their purposes, whatever they may be, against the planters of the West Indies by surprise or storm, either without full information, or in spite of just and well founded opposition, we sincerely wish them to be defeated in such an unfair project. Whatever instrument, then, can be made con ducive to free discussion, and to a perfect knowledge of the system which holds together our colonial communities, in its principle, opera lion, and details, ought to receive the active sup. port of every man who loves to do his neighbour the justice which he would himself, as an Eng lishman and fellow-Christian, desire. Two speakers, both apparently very able ones, at the above meeting, objected successfully to the people of this country, that they reproach their fellow subjects who possess property in the West Indies, with that which, if it be a crime at all, is the crime of England herself, of her Parliament, and her legislation, persisted in for centuries— viz. the existence of the state of bondage, and the relation between master and slave. We do confess that, in so far as the proprietors of West India estates are attacked on this point, we con sider them roost cruelly treated ; for we have never yet seen the argument alluded to receive even the semblance of an answer. Moreover, the chimerical scheme of putting a sadden end to slavery, with a view to the happiness of the slaves themselves, is one which, it appears to us, that every honest and sensible man would be ashamed to have imputed to him. It is known that we are decided foes to the system of slavery in principle or practice, but really, considering the condition of the Negroes, and what has al ways been their condition since they were first torn from their original soil, he who could now talk of giving them at once absolute emancipa tion, must be iu his heart a secret advocate for slavery, by exhibiting it in advantageous contrast with the confusion and wretchedness which would inevitably follow its abolition. All that any Mail who is alive at once to the interests of justice and humanity can consent to is, a progressive preparation of the slave for the duties and privi leges of a freeman. In that course it seems to us that the Government is proceeding with quite sufficient celerity ; and those who would goad the King's Ministers to an interference with Ole colonies more impetuous and coercive, are bound, in our opinion, to make out a strong case of ob durate resistance on the part of the colonists, be fore they can justify their own more peremptory and overbearing course. The Trinidad speakers say with truth, that long after the capture of the island from Spain the ItritishParliament forced the importation of slaves as the condition on which a right to land should be acquired, and this, because we were then in want of sugar ; while, now that it has become an object with certain persons to obtain a preference for East India sugar, the individuals who acted under the pro visions of the former law and policy would be sacrificed by them without hesitation or remorse. We are, conscientiously, friends to the freedom of the whole human species ; but we have been brought up in a reverence for equal justice, and, as Englishmen, we like fair play. [MORNING POST.] Paris Journals to the 4th inst. reached us last night by Express. Nothing official had yet been received in that capital to elucidate the settle ment of the great question which keeps all Europe in suspense. One fact, however, would seem to intimate that it was decided,' had it not also oc curred in other countries without producing con viction. We mean the taking of the oath of fidelity to Constantine. This oath was admini stered on Monday lust in the Greek Church in Paris by Count I di ,Borgo to all the Russian subjects belonging to his Lega tion.. We also find that it was taken by all the corps of the Russian army Ili Mo hilow, under the directions of it General in Chief, Count of o.iten Sacker. The Journal des D6bats endeavours to reconcile all the contradic tions which xontintie to prevail by suggesting— " that note, ikhstanding the document which esta blished the renunciation of the Grand Duke Con stantine to the Throne, his brother Nicholas had , the delicacy to cause him to be proclaimed Em-' peror. That the Grand Duke Constantine, on the other hand, not doubting but the publication of this document. at Alexander's death, had pre vented his being 4 proclaimed, dispatched the Archduke Michael to St. Petersburgh, with a written confirmation of his renunciation of the throne. That the Archduke Michael having met atMittau,within three days journey of Warsaw,the courier bearing the intelligence of Constantine's proclamation in St.Petersbuigh, resolved to wait in that capital for further orders loin him after he should have learned that event, instead of com municating at once the message with which he had been entrusted. The journey to the Crimea mode the Emperor Alexander acquainted with the little real progress that had been made by the now Colonies and the other establishments formed by his orders. The vexation which this circumstance caused him, and his ettreme acti vity in investigating the obstacles to the civiliza tion of the Crimea, had placed the Emperor in a state of mind which contributed to aid the pro gress of his disorder. [BRITISH pltEss:3 Last night we received the Paris Papers of Tuesday. Thuy do not furnish um with a single word of intelligence from Russia. The Journal des Debats offers an explanation of some ch.- cumstances which were supposed to be incom patible with the fact of the accession of the Em peror Nicholas :—" It appears that notwith. standing the document which declared the renun ciation of the throne by the Grand Duke Con. stautine, the Grand Duke Nicholas , had the de licacy to proclaim him Emperor. The Grand Duke Constantine, on his part, fully believing Michael met the courier bringing the intelligence of the proclamation of Constantine I. at Mittau, three days' journey from St. Petersburgh, and two from Warsaw. Ile has since felt it his duty to wait at St. Petersburgh for dispatches from Constantine, subsequent to his receiving the news of his proclamation. Five or six days would be sufficient for that purpose." Another account in the same journal is, that the Emperor Alexander had some time before his death to write a letter with his own hand to ConstantinelAwhich the latter, it is said,had sent the Grand Duke Michael to deliver, that this document promulgated by him on re ceiving the news of Alexander's death, had prevented the proclamation of his accession, sent the Grand Duke Michael with a written confirmation of the document declaratory of his renunciation of the throne. The Grand Duke in person to the Empress Mother at St. Peters bit rgh. The Courier Francais mentions a report that the object of the G rand Duke Michael's mission was to stipulate, as the conditions of Constantine's abdication, that all the Polish provinces now in corporated with the Russian Empire shall be restored to that kingdom which is under the reign of Constantine, to resume its independence, and that the provinces of the Crimea and the establish ments of the Black Sea shall be formed into a Principality for Michael. These of course can only he conjectures, and are, therefore, en titled to little regard ? one fact is worthy notice : On Monday M. Pozzo di Borgo, the Russian Ambassador at Paris, administered to the mem bers of his legation the oath of fidelity to the Emperor Constantine. It is remarked, however, that M. Pozzi di Borgo did not attend at the Tuileries on New Year's Day with the rest of the body. He is said to have declared that, in the utter ignorance in which he finds himself as to what has passed, he considers himself ut pre- sent only as the keeper of the archives of the Russian Legation. [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] We have received Ilamburgh Papers to the 31st ult. These Papers will now supersede those of the French Capital, in point of import ance, for the politics of the Russian Court, to which the former City is much nearer, promise henceforth to fix the fears and the hopes of the rest of Europe. The last advices from that re sidence, through this channel, which distinguishes itself from the other, even more by its accurate than its prompt mode of communicating, are dated the V/th ult. and from one thing is clear, that the pretended abdication of Con stantine was wholly unknown, and appa rently wholly unexpected there, at that date. They announce, however, the arrival of the Grand Duke Michael from Warsaw ; and as it was said that he had been charged by his brother to renounce the Crown in his name, it would be very strange, if there were any truth in the pre tended object of his mission, that there should be no intimation of it in these advices. They do not throw out as much as an obscure hint on the subject ; and in noticing the Grand Duke's ar rival, merely ascribes it to filial duty ; whilst they notice, at the same time, the agreeable sur prise which it had occasioned the Empress mother. In the mean time, all the ceremonies customary upon the occasion of proclaiming a new Sovereign had been performed in the name of Constantine, and the troops had taken the oath of fidelity amidst vivals, it is said, for the present Sovereign, and tears for his predecessor. These and other demonstrations clearly shew that the slightest suspicion lwas not entertained in any quarter that this Prince, %%hen the most glitter ing prize of human ambition was unawares offer ed to him, would refuse to accept it. The con. tsary supposition is certainly more consistent with human nature, and with his character in particular. At the date of these advices Con stantine was expected to arrive at St. Pe tersburgh, a supposition which seems incon. sistent with another paragraph, in which it is stated that letters from Warsaw, two days later than the former, make no mention of his departure from that city. It is still more incon sistent with another intimation, which says that Nicholas would go to Warsaw, to hold a con ference with the Emperor—the name by which Constantine is uniformly designated in all these statements. Had the crown been offered to Ni- colas, is it probable that he would leave the capital of the Empire ? But the report of the journey to Warsaw perfectly agrees with an earlier oue, which said that lie had been ap. pointed by the present Emperor to succeed bin in the Viceroyalty of Poland. [MORNING IIERALI).J The common law of England has fallen into sad disrepute with a certain class of our" Re formers." its antiquity gives them great ofrence. The statute-law is equally odious, we presume, on account of its novelty, though some parts of that are pretty old too. It is evident that if these politicians bad their way, the fable of the man with the black and gray hairs would be realized, and England would be left as bald of both ancient and modern laws as any admirer of the perfect freedom of human nature could desire. it has happened unluckily for the reputation of an American writer, that, not being enlightened yet by the theories of our modern " philosophers," he has ventured to express an admiration of the English coin. mon law, and even to prefer it to the variety of " codes" which have issued from the prolific brains of the cons tit u ti on -mak er s o f our day. What ignoranc e ! w hat presumption ! ft is not endurable that an American writer should look at our institutions but through the spectacies of " Radical Reform,"—SO think some of our volun teer lecturers on law, and they have accordingly given this simple Jonathan a suitable castigation. The obnoxio us ar ticle having appeared in the last number of the Nortlu American Review, that periodical is likely to be held in as much detes tation among some coteries in this countryos a heretic book. is at Rome. It will be , thought not fit to dispense any light but that of its own conflagration I The editor of this work is certainly lost beyond redemption unless he sees his error in time—does penance in a san.benito— forswears all respect for the laws of Englend v and acknowledges those who laugh them to scorn as the only wise men. On those terms he - may probably be forgiven, and even, in course of time, commended, if he takes care to light his taper for the future at the lamp of our Savans of reform. flow ill-fated has England beeir, that she ever had legislatures be fore our time! how stupid, how incorrigible her intellect, that she should have been content for some hundred of years with many of her own in stitutions, without resorting to the shops of the constitution-makers on the continent for systems which, like a " portable writing-desk," she could take with her or lay aside when she pleased. What happy times they must have been for the French people when a phantasmagoria of con stitutions, and codes passed in as rapid and diversified succession before their eyes as the changes of a magic lantern, while all the time the English people were condemned to enjoy a monotony of their common law—and yet had not good taste enough to feel themselves sur feited by it ! But surely better times are ap proaching, when the common law will be as odi ous as it was under the reign of a great reformer of ancient times—we mean Jack Cade, who, when one of his followers asked, as .a boon, that the laws of England might come out of his mouth, answered, with the modest liberality of a modern philosopher, " I have thought upon it—it shall be so. Away I burn all the records of the realm ; my mouth shall be the Parliament of England !"—Let the American Reviewer think of this, and never again express an admiration of a system, which was so long ago abolished by Jack Cade, but which unhappily reviekl after his popular administration I NORNING cnaoruct.v.l There was nothing in the Money Market yes terday to elicit a new observation. The prices of the different Stocks were nearly the same as on the preceding day, and the fluctuations scarce ly worth recording. The premium on Exchequer Bills and India Bonds advanced; but, upon the whole, there was not much done, and the most fertile imagination was unable to raise a report calculated to produce the slightest bustle in the Alley.—We understand that the discounts of town bills, in the Bank of England, have sensi bly diminished ; and the only surprise now is, from the evident abundance of money, that the Directors are enabled to get good Bills to dis count at 5 per cent. It is calculated that they will not long have this advantage, and that in u very few days the accommodation in the commer cial circles wit! be as great as the legitimate transactiens in trade can require.

From the first Congres, in 1780, inclusive, until the 4th of March, 1795, Senators and Representatives received each six dollars per diem, and six dollars for every 20 miles travel.— From the 4th of March, 1795, to the 4th March, 1796, Sena tors received 7 doll. per diem and 7 doll. for every twenty miles travel, and Representatives only 6 doll. • From the 4th March, 17911, until the 4th December, 1015, the per diem was 6 doll., and the mileage 6 doll. to Senators and Representatives. From the 4th of December, 1815, until the 4th March, 1817, each Senator and Representative received 1,600 dollars per annum, with a proportional deduction, for absence Iron, any cause but sickness. The President of the Senate pro tentpore, and Speaker of the House, 3,000 doll. per annum each. From the 4th of March, 1817, the compensation to members of both branches of Congress has been 8 doll. per diem end II doll. for every 2(1 miles travel. CITY OF WASHINGTON. To a Report of the Select Committee of the House of Representatives, to whom was referred the President's message, in relation to the sale of the public lots in the City of Washington, is an nexed a st a t e ment, which shows that, from Oc tober, 1791, to August, 1823, there were sold 6 ,724 lots, for 716,444 dollars and 72 cents ; that of this sum, 584,178 dollars and i 3 cents had been paid, and that 132,266 dollars and 59 cents were due. Interest on the same had been rec e iv e d to the amount, at least, of 918 dollars and 53 cents; and the amount received as for. t e n ure s, was 1,663 dollars and 89 tents. The money, it seems, from an account officially ren dered, has been expended principally on the Ca pitol and other public buildings, and for other objects of national convenience and importance. The lots which belonged to the United Stated, and 'omitted unsold on the Bth day of May, 1821, amounted to about 3,412-, containing about 26,453,733 square feet. A few of these lots have since been disposed of. It will thus be seen that the property of the General Go vernment, in lots, in the City of Washington ) y still of much value. NATURAL GAS. The Editor of the Fredonia, (Chautauque) Censor, states that he has the pleasure of anomie.- lug that the arrangements for constructing a gasometer and laying down lead pipes for con ducting the gas to a number of buildings in that village have been carried into complete opera tion, and that he witnessed on the evening of the 30th ult. the buring of 36 beautiful clear gas lights. From this gasometer, (which, as well as the manner of obtaining the gas, is minutely de scribed,) 150 lights can be supplied, and there is now gas sufficient to supply another one as large. The concern is in the hands of a company, +'h° propose to extend the business as soon as they can procure additional lead pipe from New York. The gas is supposed to be inexhaustible ; and they expect to furnish the gas lights at half the price of candles.—" The doubts and surmises of sceptics at the commencement of this undertak ing' to light the village with natural gas, (says the Censor) have passed away ; it has passed the ordeal of Dr. Mitchell, (to whom a bottle of the gas was sent) and is pronounced by him as an instance unparalleled on the face of the globe.' AMERICAN HEMP. On the 17th of M a y, 1 824, the Senate pa ssed a resolution, r equest i ng t h e P resi d ent of the United States to c ause a report from the Secre tary of the Na v y t o b e l a id b efore that Will, showing the r eason , if any, why canvass, cable'', and cordage, ma d e o f h emp, t h e growt h o f the United States, m i g ht not b e use d i n the eequ ip' men! of national vesse l s , w i t h equa l a d van t ag e as if of foreign f a b r i c or mater i a l s.

That it is injnred the mode of rotting and preparing it for tnanufac' ture. sth, That, if sown thicker on the gronnill water-rotted, and prepared with care, it will be , for all purposes, equal to any other. 6th, An' l that canvass, cables, and cordage, manufactured out of it, as now cultivated, are inferior in colour , strength, and durability. to those manufactured from imp wed hemp, and consequently are not 4 9 safe or proper fur use in the navy. He concludes by observing, that this is the reason, which the article; mentioned, made of American hemp• may not be used fur the equipment of national vessels with equal advantage as if of foreign fab rics or materials. As to the rotting, the objection to hemp, the growth of the Unit' ed States, is, that it is dew•rotted, instead ' of being water-rotted. The Commissioners 0 t the Navy, in their statement, represented that they had purchased a considerable quantity 0' canvass, made in the United States, of tlax groat: at Fairfield, in C o n nec ti c ut, w h e re they are . the habit of water-rotting it, and its quality wt" not only considered sufficiently good for the ser vice, but equal to that of the best imported CO; vass.
